Religious Education & Pastoral Care

Prayer

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. 

Where there is hatred, let me sow love;

Where there is injury, pardon;

Where there is doubt, faith;

Where there is despair, hope;

Where there is darkness, light;

Where there is sadness, joy.

 O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved as to love.

 For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned; 

And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

Stage 1: Opening of the Red Sea Scripture Story

Stage 1 have been learning about the Exodus story where Moses parted the Red Sea so people can get to the other side and be free from danger. The pictures below show Moses parting the water so the people could get through.  The  artworks are by Kinsley Brown-Carter, Sophia Stevens and Bethany Taylor in Year 1.

Year 6 RE Test

This term our Year 6 students will be participating in the annual Religion Education Test on Wednesday 14th June. This is a great way for the teachers and students to assess their understanding of key information over their primary schooling. Please keep these children in your thoughts and prayers as they sit this important test.

First Eucharist 

This term children in Year 3 will be making their First Eucharist. The First Eucharist preparation and program will begin early in Term 2 for our students and parents in Year 3. Notes and a Compass push will be sent out in the next couple of weeks for eligible candidates.

Note: If your child is listed on the Compass Event "First Eucharist" and you have not provided consent and paid, please do so at your earliest convenience. 

 

There will be an information this evening, 13th June @ 5:30pm in Stage 2 for all parents of children making this Sacrament.
